LEGO Questions & Answers

I have (sealed) bags #4-9 of this set, as well as instruction book 3. I know it would be fairly valuable if it were complete but wondering what you would do with the parts I have. Try to complete the set via bricklink and sell it as complete with no box? Try to sell as is? Scrap it and add it to my kids' stash?

I wonder, as EU citizen, and the Netherlands in particular, the benefits of exporting lego to other nations in the EU or abroad, like a hobby trader with few amounts It seems a lot of duty fees are set, not to mention shipping costs. Is there any trade route that doesnt eat up all your profit right away? I question if the differences in retailer prices can be exploited in this way. , so one should wait for articles to get real collectors value to be worth of exporting? sincerly CZ

Just wondering, I’ve not paid attention to them on prior years but are the LEGO advent calendars the same items each year?

I assembled a Technic Excavator (42006) about 5 years ago and now wish to add the power functions to it. Can anyone tell me exactly what parts, motors, controls, etc with the IR Receivers.

Hello, I recently purchased this item at a local thrift store, and am having some difficulty determining what, if anything is missing. The outer box is damaged, but the contents are largely sealed. After a quick inspection, I have the following: 9V Train Motor (Sealed Box) Black Train (Sealed Box) Caboose (Sealed Box) Freight Wagon (Sealed Box) Green Passenger Wagon (Sealed Box) Platform and Mini-Figures (Sealed Box) Yellow Box - 70931 (Power Cord) Speed Regulator (w/ Cable) - Pictured Below Light Set - Pictured Below Tracks (Loose, not pictured but all accounted for) Insert, poster, instructions Sin…

Just wondering is anyone has seen a bag like this before and what it may be worth? I've had it since 1984 and have no idea what it may be worth. Its in good condition. Thanks

We have a number of Lego sets including Duplo such as the various Thomas The Tank sets and we're looking to sell these but in the current CV19 climate we're not sure if the normal means (i.e. using Lego specific websites ) or if we're better off garage selling these. The items we're trying to sell like the Thomas The Train do not have the boxes or instructions but they are complete and the bricks are in very good condition and we are a smoker free household; these bricks have never known smoke. Attached is an image I took of one of the containers that we have the Thomas The Tank Train sets in while we're organizing the Lego/Play room. We are re-organizing the Legos/Duplos…

I've got a bunch of old sets that are showing their age, which is fine. But I'm wanting to know the best way to go about getting stickers and rubber bands replaced. Also, how to clean bulk amounts of pieces at once (need to seriously clean my UCS Tantive and X-Wing pieces). Any tips/suggestions/advice greatly appreciated, thanks

Why when I try to advertise something a box comes up saying the page that I am trying to access is not availeable for my account.

Hello, I want to make a lego useless box with lego powered up motors, i want to use 1 motor as a sensor (to notice the lever is pulled) and the other motor to put the lever back. But now i need a lego powered up program for it. The program needs to be that if the 1st motor is turned a specific amount of degrees the other motor will be triggered and go turn a amount of degrees and back. Can someone send me a program for this? Because i tried but it didnt work out.

I want to build a super big Lego model for the store. Is there anyone who can help me design the drawings?

We are tearing the back of the house off so that I can build a big lego city in a new basement... (my wife will tell you we are doing it to add a family room and a laundry...) Anyhoo, I have to move and store for 3-4 months, built sets, modulars, mechs, etc. I was thinking about buying 12"x12"x18" boxes and stashing them in there, expecting some rebuilding to need to happen. Does anyone else have a suggestion?

I just built the 6860 batcave and I'm thinking I want to extend it and also build a Wayne manor above it. Anyone ever try this, have instructions for it, or have any suggestions for it?

Hi, could someone please help a Lego Mummy? I loved Lego as a kid but put it aside as an adult and now I'm out of practice 😂. My kids are getting into in and I've dug out my old seige tower set which they are loving. The only issue is it's missing a wall piece. Can anyone suggest how I might replicate it without having to buy a new panel from eBay? And also if it's not too much trouble, how I might fashion a drawbridge?

Content of numbered sachets? At the back of building manuals there are content pages of the bricks used in the build. Is there such a place in the Lego site that details the contents of the various numbers sachets with sets? Also I notice that some parts are accompanied by a number in a bubble. Can someone tell me the reason please? I'm new, so please excuse such a basic question. Ross

I was going through my sets “to build later” and came across some that are duplicates and some that are worth enough that I am willing to sell them. I usually sell on EBay but, for some reason, I have this uneasy feeling about it with sets of this value. I am talking sets that could have values around $1500 or so. Is it safe to sell these on EBay? Are instances of fraud higher on sets like this? Is Facebook Marketplace a better avenue?

I'm getting into custom builds now and I'm sick of constantly finding i dont have what i need. Usually because I need symmetry and only have one of a specific brick. I'm wondering how builders optimize their collection so that this happens less often. Like what's a good way to bulk up my brick types so that i can get through a build without constant roadblocks? Or if you were to start all over, what would you buy to have a versatile collection of bricks that allow you to build whatever comes to mind? And secondly, obviously you can't have it all, there's always going to be a specific thing in a certain color that you dont have. So what are the things not to focus on when…

I just got an order for a set that just sold for over $800. Buyer will pay shipping and signature. Is it worth buying insurance for this set? If so, where do you guys get your insurance from? There was a site I once used but I can't recall the name of it. Plus, not sure if it's worth it with UPS insurance.
